Calling all students in grades 7–12. We’re doing it again! Join our ranks as the Young Company embarks on another epic (and speedy) journey to stage a musical in just 24 hours! For this event, students and staff will work as a collaborative, creative team to stage, costume, and tech an entire production that will be performed for the public. The countdown will begin at 4:00pm on Friday, September 11th ending with a performance on September 12th! 

Xanadu JR. follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California, on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time – the first Roller Disco. (Hey, it's 1980!) But when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation, and chaos abounds.

Auditions will be held on August 31st (time TBD). Every student registered is guaranteed a role in the production.

The Young Company Winter Festival is an 8-to-10 week long program where students rehearse and perform a fully produced musical! “Fully produced” means the show is staged, choreographed, and memorized, and includes design elements like set, costumes, lighting, and props.

This year, students in Act 1 - Act 3 (grades 4-12) will have the opportunity to be cast in one of two shows. In keeping with our mission, our teaching artists and the Education Department put a lot of thought into casting, putting students in roles that will help them grow as an artist.

Our titles this year are:

• Cinderella Youth Edition (students grades 1-6)
• How to Train Your Dragon Jr (students grades 4-9)
• Frozen the Musical (students grades 7-12)
• Bright Star (students grades 10-12)

Program calendar can be found here.

Full Tuition Price: $1050

An deposit of $150 is required to audition, and is non-refunable should your student decline their role. Your audition deposit will count towards your final tuition balance. You will only pay the full tuition if cast in one of the Winter Festival shows.

Financial aid is avaiable to all students who apply through our Fund-A-Need program. If you are interested in financial aid, please email the education department at education@greaterbostonstage.org.
